The day before C.W.J!

[Xplumberlives]

I was lucky enough to be at Bruntingthorpe on the Saturday before the C.W.J. day and watched a lot of the preparations; luckily the weather was a little better than the day itself!

Bucc being run up.


Victor being checked over.









558s arrival.











Someone looked pleased to see her.


At last a shot of the Guppy in the sun!


Buccaneer being positioned for the photocall.


904 looking lovely in the light!

Great Stuff, Dave!

I especially like the last one........

BUT!

Do you have anything to show the other
side of Guppy?

It would be nice to see all the work they've
been doing, but noone's put up any shots
of the starboard side.

It's REALLY difficult to get a shot from the good side, Danf. You get ZERO light. I've got some shots that I've taken and edited to try and brighten them up a bit. Still a bit silhouettey though

That's because they started work on the WRONG side!

Here you go



It's been brightened as much as I dare. If you look hard behind the wing, you can see as far as we have got with the blue and red, it's all over the grass after that. Orange on saturday

Great shots mate. LOVE the sequence off 558's arrival

[Xplumberlives]

Thanks, upon reflection I should have got across to the other side as the light was far more sympathetic!

Ce la vie!

In fairness though mate, 558 DID kinda creep up on us!

Yes, you're quite right, maybe we should consider planning our photographic opportunities a little better!

Like a bike ride in Cambridgeshire, in the not too distant future

Oh I love to cycle around in the early morning sun!

Can you get to Wittering for 08:00?

[Dan4th]

Thanks for the Pic, Gaz!

And DXP, I think they were perhaps wise to
start on the side less seen........

That way they get to PRACTISE!!!!!!!

Looking forward to the day she's all painted
up and shiney!

And then there's the thing about some Engines......

Tho HONEST reason we started that side: It's the side DW can see from his office window!

XPL: I should think I can manage 08:00
